FAST ON the heels of the report that
Mary Anderson's brother Joseph is to
marry Lawrence Barreh's daughter,
Gertrude, comes the runner from Lon

gagged to Forbes Rober tson, the accom-

EDWARD LAMB, the comedian, who
was here with the Lsmb-J ordan-Price
company last December, died at bis
! home in Brooklyn last Tuesday even
ing. Cancer sf the stomach was the
cause of his death. He was So years of
age, and his professional career covered
a period of thirty-three years. He
made his debut July s, 1852, at the old
National Theatre, New York. as
Martin Haywood, in The Rent Day.
That very bad play, On the Rio Grande,
was the last thing Mr.. Lamb had any
dramatic connection with.
IN ANSWER to several inquiries, Emile
Charlotte Langtry is the daughter of a
clergyman named LIE BHeton. The lady
was born in 1858, in Jersey. an island in
the British Channel. She first appeared
on the stage at Twickenham, England,
November 10, 1881, in the role of the
young widow, in A Fair Encounter,
and made her American debut Novem-
Der 6, 1882. at Wallack's Theatre. New
York, as Hester Grazebrook, in An
Unequal Match. She first appeared in
this city June 16, 1884, at the Baldwin
Theatre, playing Lady Ormond, in A
Wife's Perl.-Mtsic and Drama.
MARY ANDERSON had an unpleasant
experience in Edinburgh last month.
The Harriers asked her to bestow some
prizes. She declined in formal note
written by her secretary. The Harriers
were nightly offended in consequence.
They attended the. Lyceum Theatre in
Dody, filling the gallery, and accom-
panying the performance of Galatea
with boisterous and disturbing remarks.
When Galatea in the last act assumed q
suppliant attitude and with uplifted
face and outstreatched arms exclaimed
1.-The gods will help me-" the gallery at
once shouted back derisively, 1--WE will,
we will" The better sense of the
lower part of the house finally sue
ceeded in quelling the noise, but not be-
fore Mary had grown thoroughly
angry. The Scotch and English papers
vigorously reprove the Hsrriers for
their rowdyism and express sympathy
for the actress.

DRAMATIC AND LYRIC.
More Of Geneve Price and
Anarchy.
THE SUMNER DEARTn STILL on.
The Theatre on Mackaye's Play :
The Latest Amusement
Gleapdngs.

The theatrical and art magazines at
hand continue to devote much attention
to Steele Mackaye's Anarchy, which
| reallyiseems to have been the red letter
production of the past season. In
the cast we're such notables
as De Belsville. Piympton, Harry
Lac, Macksge himself and Sid
ney Drew; new music was written
throughout by Kelly, composer Of the
new Macbeth music; the Partisan mob
made up of young men and women
dramatic students, created furore by
the intensity of its acting. The play is
chiefly interesting to us out here from
the fact that our fellow townswoman
Geneve Price (Genevieve Lytton) ap-
peared in it. The Theatre, an able
dramatic magazine, contains her por-
trait this week, and glowing account
of her acting, The picture, while it is
very handsome one, does not in the
least, hatter the young lady. The Theatre
saws:
The chief female character in Anarchy
is Diane. 1t was anticipated that Miss An
ME Robe would play it, but she being unable
to break previous engagement, the part
was entrusted to Miss enevieve Lytton,
young actress not very well known,
Her appe7 rance as Diane revealed one of
the loveliest pictures of sweet womanhood
ever beheld. As she came upon the stage it
seemed as if an angel would have to be
painted fair indeed to look like her. There
was grace of figure beyond the reach of
art, and yet there was such q delicious
natvette in every movement and such pure
and tender light in her bright eyes that she
would have won even If she had stood still
to be merely gazed upon.
Her Directoire costume-a most simple
gown in gray-disp aged neck that would
have charmed Alma iadema. her hair, of
golden brown, was done up in the Grecian
English language with more music in it
than even the poets brook doth make when
1t sings through the sleeping wood.
OF her acting my Judgment is sensibly
tempered after seeing Diane a number of
times Those who saw her only on the
first night could not speak fairly Then she
was nervous and hysterical, but in the third
act. when her father denounces her, she rose
to superbly dramatic height On the sub
sequent evenings she became at times abso-
lutely remarkable, considering her youth
and inexperience. She exhibited all the
qualities necessary to become great ac-
tress, and when the week was done my
opinion was formed as l now express it:
There is no other woman on the American
stage who could so easily take the place of
adelaide Nelson in the hearts of the people as
GeaeUieUe Luton.
OF her life I learned that she went through
a most rigid course of study in Paris and
London. She has within her the refinement
of an intellectual and brilliant woman. l re-
peat that she has a great future before her
study the stage only as an art and eschew its
communications.

BOB BURDETTE. the genial humorist of
the Brooklyn Eagle, was as gallant a
beardless boy as wore the blue during
the late unplesssntness. In reference
to the Gettysburg reunion he has this
to say: These boys in gray are more
than foemen worthy of our steel; they
are our countrymen and brothers-fesh
of our flesh and bone of our bone. They
come to us with the songs of patriotism
on their lips and the fire of patriotism
in their hearts. Their presence signifies
that the broken chain has been welded
never to be broken again; that the
nation which began its march at York
town took up the line of an even
grsnder march at Appomstox; that
the ties of common hope and com
mon destiny bind the east and west
the north and south together, and that
the republic has at last found secure
sanctuary in the hearts of all he1
children"

SUNSET Cox made the most taking
speech at the grand Tammany rally on

allusion to some Republican leaders
''They read the gospel of anarchy and

inaPtly fills the place once occupied by
Morrow, Macarthur, Lucas, Corwin and

Washington to get out an Injunction
against the delivery OF the flags. Had
he lived 1878 years ago, when the angelic
choir chsnted, Peace on earth, good will
to men, he would have sought for the
Roman judex at Bethlehem, to enie in

he lived in the vicinity of the mountain
where Christ taught US how to forgive
our enemies, and pray for those who

voked, with frenzied blasphemy, Caesar
himself to close the lips of the divine
Teacher. And he would have been ABLY
seconded by the gentle FairchiId, who
with simless fury would have cried out:
'Palsied be the tongue that utters such
benign lessons of forgiveness. ,"

Idaho would never nave thought it from
any indications he could CLEAN from eX-
ternal appearances. The doors of the
saloons that fanked the one narrow
street that ran straight through the
town from north to south, stood wide
open and from within the cllnk or
glasses, clatter of billiard balls, harsh
laughter, discordant songs and curses
fioated out upon the morning air,
bright and radiant with the sunshine
that crept down the mountain side and
routed the shadows that lurked in the
crOfts and among the bOsky hedges.
Rough men coarsely CARRIED stood and
sat in little knots around the doors, some
preparing to depart on prospecting
tours in search of the golden treasure
hidden beneath the grim mountains
that lowered above them. Others just
returned, their belts filled with the gilt
tering dust Sifted from the auriferouS
dirt, were telling startling tales OF the
wonderful wealth in the gulcheS from
which they had come. Others were
grouped around empty beer kegs, that
held the cards which were depicting
some purses and filling others. A pis-
tOl's sharp crack rings out and soul
shakes off its mortal huSk and scars
upward. Death held no terror for the
rough, reckless men of QuartZville. 1t
was their daily companion. They con-
stantly stared it in the face and had
come to treat it rather with friendliness
than fear.
But even here the ambassador of civ
ilization and Christianity had made his
way and welded an influence that was
not without effect. Even here, sur
rounded by this reckless element, there
were those. though few in numbers, who
reverenced the day set apart for the
worship of the Creator, and Oh this
bright Sabbath morning they had gath
cred on the bank of the river beneath
the shadows of the clustering cotton
woods; and within hearing of the hilar-
ity that family came to his ears from
the street above, the sad, pale-faced
missionary spoke of the love and glory
of the invisible Power who had created
the wonders that surrounded them. His
words were simple but effective. He
was speaking to simple hearts. His
congregation was small and unpreten-
tiOus, but the eagerneSS with which the
sunburned faces were upturned to the
speaker told an interest that tongues
could not express.
Seated little distance from the group,
at the foot of tall cottonwood
was Idaho Pete, one of the most reck-
less and daring men of Quartzville. His
associates had been the toughest men in
the mines since his earliest remem-
ORANGES, and he had grown up among
them to win their admiration by his
proves and daredevil disposition.
Every man in the diggings swore by
Idaho Pete. He was always foremost
in private or public brawls, and often
had the bullets from his pistol silenced
fho of VIII IN
acknowledge his supremacy. There
was no one quicker on the trigger than
he, and in any movement where cool
ness and daring were demanded he al
ways led.
Pete wandered down by the river
early this Sabbath morning, and he
hardly noticed the little group of Chris
tians as they gathered near him until
the voice of the preacher fell on his ear
and the music of the simple hymns
chanted by them aroused him from his
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1887-12-25

reverie. He took no noticeable interest
in what was said, but sat careleSSly
prodding the earth with the point of his
bowie-knife, and when the preacher
had finished his closing prayer and the
people moved away Pete showed no
consciousness of their departure.
The air was filled with the merry
twitter of birds as they fitted about
among the bOughs and hoped over the
edge, and the saucy chattering of a
squirrel in the branches above the
mans head attracted his atten-
ton. Pete dropped his knife and
with his eye fixed on the
jabbering squirrel reached around to
his side and drew revolver from his
belt. Grasping the heavy handle of the
revolver in both hands, with twinkle
in his eye, Pete glanced along the bar
rel and drew a bead on the squirrel.
His long finger had begun to press the
trigger, when little white hand stole
over his shoulder and grasped the ham
mer of the pistol, while sweet, child
iSh voice said:
Don't shoot him, Pete. He doesn't do
any HARM" y
Pete dropped the revolver, and, turn
ing his head, saw the missiOnary's
daughter standing by his side with two
tiny tear drops quivering on her palei
cheeks as she looked pleadingly into his
face. Everybody in QuartZville knew

had come to the mountains with hen
husband OH his Christian mission, soon.
fell victim to the dread mountain fever
and was sleeping in the little grass plat
up on the hillside, where roughly
hewn cross marked her resting place.
There was not one among the gruff,
cOarse-natured men who would not
have given his life in defense of s'Little
Sunshine" They all loved her, and the
toughest miner in her presence became
as meek and as gentle as child.
You hyar, Sunshine" exclaimed
Pete, in surprise.
Eyes, Pete; you won't shoot it, will
you?" she pleaded, looking into his
rough unshorn face with her tender
blue eyes, from which the tears were
yelling, II love them so much"
